How Physics Is Explored

Every concept can be approached from multiple scientific perspectives.

ANALYSIS / FRAMEWORK
01 / THEORY

Build the model

Understand definitions, principles, assumptions and mathematical relationships.

02 / VISUAL

See the physics

Convert abstract equations into fields, vectors, waves, particles and motion.

03 / EXPERIMENT

Test the model

Connect theory with measurements, apparatus, uncertainty and real observations.

04 / ANALYSIS

Interpret data

Investigate graphs, gradients, relationships, errors and experimental conclusions.

VIRTUAL LABORATORY / 03

Physics Visual Laboratory

A visual interface for thinking about physical systems.

IAL ATLAS / RESEARCH NOTE

You are not here just to memorise equations.

The purpose of this environment is to help you understand what the equations mean, why physical systems behave the way they do, how experiments reveal those relationships, and how mathematical models can describe the world around us.
